This section documents all changes and bug fixes that have been applied since the release of 5.0.23.
Functionality added or changed:
        In the MySQLGrtShell.exe program the
        Values tab has been renamed to
        GRT Tree. However, the GRT
        Tree tab only shows a root node because there is no
        GRT Tree loaded when the Shell is started in
        standalone mode.
       (Bug#35052)
Bugs fixed:
        Indexes listed when the Index tab was
        selected could not be deleted if the index type was
        FOREIGN.
       (Bug#38639)
When the menu item Model, Validation, Validate all was selected, and an error dialog subsequently displayed, the dialog error message had a missing dot separator between the database name and table name. (Bug#38632)
When a DBDesigner 4 model that contained duplicate relationships was imported into Workbench, and then exported, the resultant script would fail when executed on MySQL server. (Bug#38488)
It was not possible to synchronize a model to an external database, if the model contained triggers. (Bug#38436)
When resizing the comment column under Physical Schemata view in column format, the column resize was reverted when switching between schemas. (Bug#38431)
        An attempt to copy a table and then paste it into a new schema
        resulted in an
        Unknown Exception
        being generated.
       (Bug#38429)
        If you created a new view with an OR REPLACE
        clause, the Forward Engineer SQL CREATE
        Script output contained the OR
        REPLACE clause twice.
       (Bug#38337)
        When a DBDesigner 4 XML file was imported into Workbench the
        INSERT statements were
        incorrectly converted.
       (Bug#38196)
Importing a script that specified an incorrect data type required Workbench to close. (Bug#38146)
Workbench crashed when using the Model, Validation(MySQL), Validate All menu item on a model that contained a dangling foreign key index. (Bug#38115)
        Foreign key options (onDelete,
        onUpdate) are not imported from DBDesigner
        schema.
       (Bug#37794)
        In the
        mysql-workbench-oss-5.0.23-win32-noinstall
        version of Workbench the menu item Plugins,
        Objects, Copy SQL to
        Clipboard did not work.
       (Bug#37736)
When synchronizing the database, table comments were not updated. However, column comments worked as expected. (Bug#37686)
Running Help, Update... crashes Workbench when the wizard comes to the point where it is trying to close Workbench. (Bug#37665)
Database, Synchronize did not update the model view when the table was changed in the database, until after Workbench was restarted. (Bug#37634)
Forward Engineer SQL CREATE Script did not reflect changes made to the model. (Bug#37574)
        When using the Forward Engineer SQL CREATE
        Script, columns marked as NOT NULL
        were generated as NOT NULL DEFAULT NULL.
       (Bug#37385)
        Errors were generated in SQL code during Forward
        Engineer Schema for Inserts data in
        TIMESTAMP columns.
       (Bug#37059)
If a database was imported using Reverse Engineer SQL ALTER Script and the database name changed in Workbench, the script then generated by Forward Engineer SQL ALTER Script was incorrect. (Bug#36178)
        The auto-increment flag was not cleared internally for a column,
        when the type of that column was changed to one for which
        auto-increment is invalid; for example, char.
        When the model was exported using Export,
        Forward Engineer SQL Create Script, the
        resulting script incorrectly retained the auto-increment flag
        for the changed column.
       (Bug#36085)
